hanging with our boys

today was our last sunday with our EMC family.  we took our older boys out for lunch at KFC as a little treat for them.  they have really just been such a pleasure to get to know... to have as our neighbors... to be our guides and translators... to play sports with... to simply be older brothers and sisters with... to love... to fellowship.  man i miss them so much.

we also ran into our street boys - Jackin and a couple of his buddies.  Last time after we took him and his buddies out for McD's, he had asked if we could give him some shirts and shoes... so this time we came prepared with some of our shirts in case we ran into him... we bought some kfc for him to share with his friends and then we handed them the shirts.  they were so excited... so precious... and it was so neat to see our boys talking to these street kids.

after our feast we went back to the office and played some soccer with the boys... got nice and sweaty... like usual... and then headed back to the flat.. packed some... cleaned some... and then headed back out to have a lovely dinner with the Sinha/George family.  We all felt so blessed to have this time together... so sad we are leaving Kolkata tomorrow...
